In Ireland, I had a lot of time for contemplation built into my schedule- I&#39;m working on finding those times in the US. What to blog was more straightforward in Ireland since we would visit a castle, I&#39;d take pictures, and then I&#39;d have blog post. :-) This has been much more a year of transition than I expected and I&#39;ve had trouble finding my rhythm. I&#39;m confident I&#39;ll be back. :-)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09963493181798474313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034780182263991103.post-2642220461627843252014-03-15T00:49:10.489-04:002014-03-15T00:49:10.489-04:00Sorely missing your blog posts.

And, ha!, about the men. :-) The thing this clarified for me (as writing things out does) is why Jesus had to be a man. I&#39;m not saying I know the mind of God or anything like that, but, it made significantly more sense- at least to me- but there is still plenty of mystery.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09963493181798474313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034780182263991103.post-24158722169544511172013-10-05T20:12:34.800-04:002013-10-05T20:12:34.800-04:00Very beautiful, Becky!

Motherhood is a form of priesthood, looked at a certain way. A participation in the priesthood of all believers that only women can understand. This is why I have no trouble with the reality that only a man (but not every man) can be an ordained priest. When a woman has the privilege of motherhood... well, let the men do what they can.Leilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03432158981260636910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034780182263991103.post-33546855525953046092013-10-04T09:35:56.643-04:002013-10-04T09:35:56.643-04:00Of course it&#39;s ok!

Is this in line with what you were taught? Most of what I&#39;ve read lends more to the use of the suffering to atone for those in Purgatory.<br /><br />A big wave from Virginia!
